In a recent conversation with Trenton Miller I shared with him that if I could only give someone one piece of advice it would be to ” Finish What You Start “
Those four words have carried me for the past few decades and now with just the final 14 days left, it will be a Mad Dash to the Finish Line ! No taking it easy here….
First, we have three on going projects – Dr McBride, Varsity Volleyball 🏐 profiles ( 3 remaining) and working with the Junior Varsity team on their Group Hug Page. We now have a photo 📷 of all 16 standing next to someone who Loves 💘 them and now we will build on it!
Monday (10/21) – You see the photo 📷 at the Top about tonight’s event up at Graham High School 🏫. One of our own, KK Newman was involved with organizing the event and how could one not love the cause.
Tuesday (10/22)… 8:15 am to help Vickey Ritchie with her next project and then that evening there will be a singing performance 🎭 at the High School…
Wednesday (10/23) – Getting told by my Doctor that while I tried hard, I didn’t make the level of improvement that both he and I desired since the last labs. Afterwards, Bluefield Soccer ⚽️ has a 2pm game at the East River Soccer Complex.
Thursday (10/24) – Junior Varsity Volleyball 🏐 closes out their season at Radford. Varsity closes out their regular season as well. Also, hopefully someone will be up to helping 🙏 with the JV Football game.
Friday (10/25) – Back to Boone, North Carolina for our next Home 🏡 Field Hockey 🏑 game.
Saturday (10/26) – Southern Methodist University (6-1) brings their high flying offense into Wallace Wade Stadium 🏟 to face Duke (6-1).
Sunday (10/27) – Very special Fund Raising event for the Children’s Hospital 🏥 in Durham as two former Duke players Coach against each other in an event called The Brotherhood Run. Getting to see Bobby Hurley return to Cameron with his Arizona State team will be fun!.
Monday (10/28) – Tricky one here as Linda has an 11am flight ✈️ out of Raleigh – Durham Airport and the District Tourney for Volleyball 🏐 opens at Alleghany that night 🌙.
Tuesday (10/29) – Beckley, West Virginia and the West Virginia Tech Golden Bears 🐻 Baseball ⚾️ Program.
Wednesday (10/30) This date has been circled on my Calendar 📅 for months as Eastern Mennonite University plays Volleyball 🏐 at Ferrum College. Two recent CCHS Grads playing against each other for the third time. But, if the current VB team were to Win on Monday, they would play for the Championship on Wednesday.
Thursday (10/31) – Head back to Boone ahead of Friday’s regular season 🏡 finally. The reason for needing to go early is that after announcing the game on Friday I have to head over to RDU for an EARLY flight ✈️ down to Miami on Saturday.
Friday (11/1) – Announcing the App State home game, the last one of season #3. Then driving 🚗 over to RDU. Writing ✍ a $1,000.00 check for the next month of the donation to the Academics part of the School.
Saturday (11/2) – Jump on a airplane ✈ with some really cool people for a quick trip down to Miami for the Duke @ Miami football game. Later today, the networks will announce whether we get the Noon, 3:30 or late game. This will dictate the events of the day in regards to before and after. Flight ✈️ gets back to RDU just after Midnight.
Sunday (11/3) – Next stop ✋ is Harrisonburg, Va. Two things taking place up there. Daytime its James Madison University hosting App State with the M.A.C regular season Championship on the line.
Evening time, this is where my Overnight Team runs 🏃♂️ our operation and its been a while since I actually did my job from my job.
Don’t forget about keeping up with Coach Shawn Montgomery and his Cross Country teams the rest of the way.
➕ writing a check for the balance of the $10,000.00 pledge ($6K)
One disappointment will come in the form of Saturday 11/2. It turns out that the Regional VB tournament play in games will be that day. This means that #7 will host #10 and #8 will host #9. This wouldn’t effect anything in regards to me unless CCHS were to finish #7 or #8 and it turns out that is a distinct possibility now….
As the Late, Great Paul Harvey would say, Now you know the Rest of the Story…..
